As a Spanish chef in America, I am so jealous of this book. Nobody embraces Spain in the heart of America with more poetry, passion, and perfection than Katie. She and her husband Félix are family to me, and I feel great joy seeing how she has grown as a person and as a chef.

With this book, Katie brings the true essence of Spanish cuisine to the American kitchen. Katie and Felix are the perfect example of how dedication, passion, talent, and a shared dream can lead to the greatest success.

Albert Adria

I immediately fell in love with Katie's food at a culinary event in Miami years ago. Her cooking is honest, authentic, and incredible. This collection of recipes inspires me and is sure to inspire many home cooks - I can't wait to start cooking from it!

Katie Button is one the most inspiring young cooks who received the title of Best New Chef during my tenure as Editor in Chief at Food & Wine. I’m incredibly excited to now be able to replicate her fantastic Spanish-by-way-of-the-South food from this amazing new book.

Dana Cowin

In this gorgeous book Chef Katie Button has captured the spirit and conviviality of Spanish cooking and brought it to the American table. The well-written recipes, beautiful photographs and passionate approach make me want to run to the kitchen, book a flight to Asheville and travel to Spain all at the same time!

Suzanne Goin

Buy this book for the soup and salad chapter alone. I’m serious. I fell hard for the Cúrate watermelon salad with goat cheese and gas station corn nuts. Ditto her mushroom soup with that Basque cheese I can’t pronounce. This is honest restaurant cooking made accessible, something many chefs promise but few deliver.
